Read the next chapter of Street Child – ‘Rosie and Judd’ (attached)

In addition to Read Theory, I have attached a reading comprehension activity based on the Anne Frank diaries.

Writing – Recount – Diary Entry

Task 1 Recognising the features of diaries.

This should be a really easy task for you to complete because we have done this type of writing lots of times before. Watch this video clip to remind you of the features of a diary.

After you have watched the clip, jot down all the features that you learnt.

Task 2: Feelings, thoughts and emotions

Jot down all of the feelings, thoughts and emotions your chosen character would feel in the kitchen with Rosie and their mother. This can just be a thought shower or bullet points.

Would they know what was happening?

How would Rosie look to a small child?

Would the smells of the kitchen remind the children of particular times?

Would the children be scared?

Think about:

Your senses it is always a good idea to use your senses to help you describe things really well.

Put yourself in their shoes; how would you feel?

REMEMBER a diary entry should include lots of feelings, thoughts and emotions.

Task 3: To write a diary entry showing viewpoint.

Remember to use informal language in your writing because it is a personal account of the events that took place. You can even add slang or add an accent to your character if you like. Use the success criteria below to guide how you structure your writing. You can email Miss Overton or I your finished work to [email protected] or [email protected] We can’t wait to read them.
